July / August 2013 Photo A Day Project - Week Five / Week One

The photo-a-day challenge continues!

Mindfulness seems to be the theme of my life these days, as reflected by...

• the books I'm reading (E-squared: Nine Do-It-Yourself Energy Experiments That Prove Your Thoughts Create Your Reality, by Pam Grout, and The Intention Experiment: Using Your Thoughts to Change Your Life and the World, by Lynne McTaggert) 
•  
• the wonderful people I'm spending time with, and what we're discussing 
•  
• the continuing practice of tracking all of my food and exercise on SparkPeople
•  
• and beginning Deepak Chopra's 21-day meditation practice this morning.

 Following FatMumSlim's Photo a Day Challenge last month was another way to focus my attention on the beauty and blessings around me. Here, then, are the last three days of July's photos...

29 - Perspective

Five very cool men at the ESL Conversation Group
Five unique perspectives on the world

 

 

30 - Friendship

Best Friends Forevah!

 

31 - Workplace

Since I work mostly in clients' homes
I'll share Pierre's home office

And now... August's Word of the Day list of prompts:

1 - Something Beginning with N... (a series of four)

Copper says, "NOOOOOOOO! Not another nasty storm!"

And the Nervous pacing begins

And continues, no matter what we try...

... including attempting a DIY compression hoodie
which didn't calm his nerves, but was
incredibly cute.

2 - Incomplete

3 - Skyline

A glorious evening walk after dinner
with dear neighbours and pups
